From: Joao Martins <joao.m.mart...@oracle.com>

Introduce a new module parameter for dax_hmem which
initializes all region devices as free, rather than allocating
a pagemap for the region by default.

All hmem devices created with dax_hmem.region_idle=1 will have full
available size for creating dynamic dax devices.
